clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of car-t in the treatment of multiple myeloma

Conditions: Multiple Myeloma in Relapse

Summary: this is a single arm, single center clinical study evaluating the safety and efficacy of car-t treatment for multiple myeloma.

this study is a single arm, single center study targeting patients with recurrent/refractory multiple myeloma (r/rmm). the study plans to enroll 40 subjects, with a sample size based on actual occurrence and a dosage of 3×106/kg±20%\~1×107/kg ±20% car positive t cells.

inclusion criteria: 1. patients or their guardians understand and voluntarily sign the informed consent form, and are expected to complete the follow-up examination and treatment of study procedures; 2. aged 18-75 years, male or female; 3. according to imwg diagnostic criteria, diagnosed with multiple myeloma; 4. patients with documented multiple myeloma disease as relapsed refractory or primary refractory, defined as: a) relapsed refractory: no response to salvage therapy (no response defined as failure to achieve minimal response \[mr\] or disease progression on treatment), or disease progression within 60 days of the last treatment, or disease progression in patients who have achieved mr or above remission; b) primary refractory: never achieved mr or above response to any treatment, including never achieved mr or above remission, but m protein changes are not large, patients without evidence of clinical progression and patients who have primary refractory, progressed, and met the definition of progression. 5. the presence of measurable disease at screening as determined by any of the following criteria: serum monoclonal paraprotein (m-protein) level ≥ 1.0 g/dl or urine m-protein level ≥ 200 mg/24 hours;

extramedullary measurable disease; the presence of tumor cells in the bone marrow as detected; 6. the patient has recovered from the toxicity of previous treatment, that is, ctcae toxicity grade \< 2 (unless the abnormality is tumor-related or judged by the investigator to be stable, it has little effect on safety or efficacy);

no clinically significant pleural effusion; 9. venous access for collection can be established, no contraindications for leukocyte collection. exclusion criteria: 1. diagnosis or treatment of another invasive malignancy other than multiple myeloma within 3 years, with the following exceptions: malignancy treated with curative intent and no known active disease ≥ 3 years prior to enrollment; or adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer with no evidence of disease; 2. previous anticancer therapy (prior to blood collection for car-t preparation) as follows: targeted therapy, epigenetic therapy, or investigational agent within 14 days or at least 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter), or invasive investigational medical devices; monoclonal antibody therapy within 21 days; proteasome inhibitor therapy within 14 days; immunomodulator therapy within 7 days; and radiotherapy within 14 days (except for bone marrow reserve with ≤ 5% field coverage); 3. any hematopoietic stem cell transplantation within 2 months before screening; 4. history of central nervous system diseases; 5. known active central nervous system (cns) involvement or clinical signs of meningeal involvement in multiple myeloma; 6. waldenström macroglobulinemia, poems syndrome (polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, monoclonal proteinopathy, and skin changes) or primary al amyloidosis at screening; 7. hepatitis b surface antigen (hbsag) positive, or hepatitis b core antibody (hbcab) positive and peripheral blood hbv dna quantitative detection positive; hepatitis c virus (hcv) antibody positive; human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) antibody positive; cytomegalovirus (cmv) dna detection positive; syphilis detection positive; epstein-barr virus dna detection positive; 8. patients with a history of severe allergy \[a history of severe allergy is defined as a secondary or above allergic reaction, any of the following clinical manifestations occur when allergic reactions occur: airway obstruction (runny nose, cough, wheezing, dyspnea), tachycardia, hypotension, arrhythmia, gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, vomiting), incontinence, laryngeal edema, bronchospasm, cyanosis, shock, respiratory, cardiac arrest\] or known allergy to any of the active ingredients, excipients or murine products and xenogeneic proteins contained in this trial (including qinglin regimen); 9. patients with severe heart disease, including but not limited to severe arrhythmia, unstable angina pectoris, massive myocardial infarction, new york heart association class iii or iv cardiac insufficiency, myocardial infarction ≤ 6 months before screening or coronary artery bypass grafting (cabg), a history of unexplained syncope and non-vasovagal or dehydration caused by, a history of severe non-ischemic cardiomyopathy, refractory hypertension (refractory hypertension is defined as: the use of reasonable tolerable adequate doses of ≥ 3 antihypertensive drugs (including diuretics) on the basis of lifestyle improvement for \> 1 month of blood pressure is still not up to standard or taking ≥ 4 antihypertensive drugs blood pressure can be effectively controlled); 10. unstable systemic diseases judged by the investigator: including but not limited to severe liver, kidney or metabolic diseases requiring drug treatment; 11. patients with acute/chronic graft-versus-host disease (gvhd) within 6 months before screening, or need to receive immunosuppressive agents for gvhd; 12. patients with active autoimmune or inflammatory diseases of the nervous system (e.g., guillain-barre syndrome (gbs), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (als)) and clinically significant active cerebrovascular disease (e.g., cerebral edema, posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (pres)); 13. neoplastic emergencies (such as spinal cord compression, intestinal obstruction, leukostasis, tumor lysis syndrome, etc.) requiring emergency treatment before screening or reinfusion; 14. presence of uncontrollable bacterial, fungal, viral, or other infections requiring antibiotic therapy;
